Potchefstroom notes on fitting & restoration
Older houses near the Mooi River and the central streets often have suspended pine or parquet worth restoring. Sanding and sealing can bring it back, but loose blocks and gaps need repair first. Student digs in Mohadin and Baillie Park are usually refitted during the long break, so book early. Church halls and school rooms may call for dustless sanding to keep other rooms in use.
